Oakland Raiders: Tim Brown, Howie Long, Marcus Allen, Ken Stabler

Just Missed Cut: Bo Jackson

If Bo Jackson played more he probably would have been part of the Raiders Mount Rushmore, but the four I named did a lot more for the franchise then Jackson did in his time. Marcus Allen was the running back of the then Los Angeles Raiders. Allen led the team in all rushing categories. Allen won a Super Bowl and also was named the Super Bowl MVP. Ken " The Snake" Stabler won a Super Bowl with the Raiders, was also league MVP, and offensive player of the year. Stabler along with Allen are both in the Hall of Fame. Rounding out the four is Hall of Famers Howie Long and Tim Brown whom both excelled at their positions.

Donovan McNabb

Philadelphia Eagles: Randall Cunningham, Donovan McNabb, Brian Dawkins, Reggie White

Just Missed Cut: Steve Van Buren

Randall Cunningham was maybe the first running quarterback to play the game. Cunningham brought something to the table that other quarterbacks in that time were not known to be outside of the pocket and be the teams leading rusher. Donovan McNabb came to the side when it had its most success going to the NFC Championships many times and only making it to the Super Bowl once and lost. McNabb was a leader in the NFL in passing and in some rushing statistics as well. Brian Dawkins and Reggie Wayne were dominant defensive players in their time and dominated their position in the entire NFL. Reggie Wayne is the only player on my lists to be part of two teams, Mount Rushmore.

Pittsburgh Steelers: Terry Bradshaw, Joe Greene, Ben Roethlisberger, Jack Lambert

Just Missed Cut: Franco Harris

Pittsburgh Steelers could be one of the hardest teams to pick a foursome to be their Rushmore.Likes of Antonio Brown, Troy Polamalu, Franco Harris, Mel Blount, Rod Woodson, Jack Ham, Lynn Swann, John Stallworth, Jerome Bettis and even not so loved Le'Veon Bell. When it comes up to me, I am sure my four are different from most of the peoples top 4 when it comes to the Steelers. I have quarterbacks Terry Bradshaw and Ben Roethlisberger who were the leaders of the teams that won all of those Super Bowls. Next is Joe Greene whos nickname was "Mean Joe" for a reason. Mean Joe was one of the most dominant defensive players of all time, so he for me was on the list. I could have picked anyone to be the fourth, but to me, if there was a linebacker who changed the way his position was played it was Jack Lambert. Lambert was probably the best linebacker in the 70's.

San Fransico 49ers
San Fransico 49ers

San Fransico 49ers: Jerry Rice, Joe Montana, Steve Young, Ronnie Lott

Just Missed Cut: Roger Craig

The San Fransico 49ers had a lot of fantastic players in their rich histoty. Good thing I just had to name four of them. Jerry Rice for me comes first because he is probably the best offensive athlete to play the game. Next came Joe Montana who led the 49ers to four Super Bowls. Joe Montana was considered the best quarterback to play the game, not the way of statistical numbers, but winning the big games. Joe Montana won 4 of those big games and won the MVP 3 times in those Super Bowls. Steve Young was Montana heir apparent in San Fransico. Young was a different type of quarterback than Montana and led them to another Super Bowl once Montana was traded away. Finally, the last spot goes to cornerback/safety Ronnie Lott. Lott one of the hardest hitters in football, punished players with extreme power if they came in his way.
